HCN, KT AI Quarantine Robot Delivered to Gwanak Cultural Foundation... Sales Begin

[Asia Economy Reporter Oh Su-yeon] HCN announced on the 17th that it delivered the KT artificial intelligence (AI) quarantine robot to the Gwanak Cultural Foundation on the 13th.

The KT AI quarantine robot delivered by HCN to the Gwanak Cultural Foundation enables continuous disinfection without time and space constraints through autonomous sterilization. It can fundamentally eradicate viruses not only in the air but also those settled on the floor, and it is harmless to the human body as it does not use disinfectant solutions.

HCN, which incorporated the AI quarantine robot released by KT into the KT Group, is now able to sell it independently. Along with the full-scale sales, HCN will deliver AI quarantine robots to cultural and living spaces in areas with high foot traffic where continuous disinfection is necessary.

The first AI quarantine robot delivered by HCN to the local community is scheduled to operate at the Gwanak Central Library of the Gwanak Cultural Foundation. At the handover ceremony held by the Gwanak Cultural Foundation on the 13th, Cho Seok-bong, HCN Chief Customer Officer, and Cha Min-tae, CEO of the Gwanak Cultural Foundation, among others, attended. Immediately after the ceremony, attendees moved to the library to observe a disinfection demonstration by the AI quarantine robot.

Cho Seok-bong, HCN Chief Officer, said, “I hope the Gwanak Central Library becomes a more pleasant space through the AI quarantine robot,” and added, “I hope it contributes to creating an environment where local residents can safely and healthily enjoy culture.”

Cha Min-tae, CEO of the Gwanak Cultural Foundation, stated, “The Gwanak Central Library is a central cultural platform in our region and is open to all local residents,” and added, “We will build a safe and healthy space with gratitude.”
